You're on the right track. But in order for me to help you I need a bit more information about your system.

Boot Knoppix, open a terminal window, and cut-and-paste the following into the terminal window:
Code:
 true ; ( set -x
cat /etc/knoppix-version
cat /proc/partitions
cat /etc/fstab
sudo fdisk -l /dev/hd?
) >& result.txt
BTW the option to fdisk is a lowercase L not a 1 (one.) Please post the output of result.txt.
